Blueberry Cobbler

While variations abound, a traditional cobbler is a baked, deep-dish fruit dessert that's topped with a biscuit sprinkled with sugar to give it a bit of crunch and color.

Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

• Filling:
• 6  cups  fresh blueberries
• 1/3  cup  sugar
• 2  tablespoons  cornstarch
• 1  teaspoon  grated lemon rind
• 
  Topping:
• 1 1/3  cups  all-purpose flour
• 2  tablespoons  sugar
• 3/4  teaspoon  baking powder
• 1/4  teaspoon  salt
• 1/4  teaspoon  baking soda
• 5  tablespoons  chilled butter, cut into small pieces
• 1  cup  fat-free sour cream
• 3  tablespoons  2% reduced-fat milk
• 1  teaspoon  sugar

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°.

To prepare filling, combine first 4 ingredients in an 11 x 7-inch baking dish.

To prepare topping, lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 4 ingredients (flour through baking soda) in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in sour cream to form a soft dough.

Drop dough by spoonfuls onto blueberry filling to form 8 dumplings. Brush dumplings with milk; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar. Place baking dish on a jelly roll pan. Bake at 350° for 50 minutes or until filling is bubbly and dumplings are lightly browned.
